The "good card" funnel
475 brought · 232 playersOnce cast, 57% of this card is still on the battlefield at game end. This reflects how often it survives removal, not just whether it's a permanent.
Players who cast this card win 21% of the time (n=48) , vs 20% when it never left the library (n=259).
When players drew this card but left it in hand, they won 26% (n=25).
Read this as correlation, not as the card's contribution. Casting a card means you lived long enough to cast it, so this gap widens with mana value across every card we track.
Observed gap +1.2pp; 95% confidence interval -6.4pp to +8.8pp. Correlational, not causal: powerful payoffs also get cast more often in games you are already winning.
